Error 25095 when trying to install vSphere update utility

Hi all,

as the subject says, I cannot install the update utility. OS is Win7 Pro x64. Any ideas?

Are you installing 4.0 Update 1? To my knowledge, the previous release was not compatible with Windows 7.

This blog post and the attached screenshot suggests Windows might be blocking the install for security reasons: http://justin-bennett-msjc.blogspot.com/2009/11/vcenter-upgrade-25-upgrade-5-and.html

This thread suggests that a GPO could disable the ability to run MSI packages on the computer: http://communities.vmware.com/thread/140517

Hope it helps!
